Dr. Trina Running is a professor in the sociology, social work, and criminology department at Idaho State University. She looks at climate change and environmental justice from a social point of view - what does climate change mean for human society, and how do we help ourselves in this crisis? In the first episode of our conversation, Trina explains the social dilemma of climate change and how that expresses itself in Idaho’s water system.
